Oh No, The Big 3-0!

My 30th birthday was like any other day... it seems that most birthdays after your teens are just that... just another day. I watched a few extra kids most of the day, did some laundry, did the dishes, cleaned the house... We did have Pizza Hut pizza for lunch ("it's my birthday, I want Pizza":)

The evening was to be spent at our friend's, Mary & Andrew McMann's house. (I was told the family party would be on Saturday) So we went to the McMann's, had a nice dinner and chatted. We then were getting ready for Family Home Evening, Rhenley wanted to play something on the piano, Lucas ran outside to get her piano book (which was in the van). Upon returning inside, he had an entourage of people, balloons, and cake following him. I WAS SOOOOO SURPRISED!:)



I received some great gifts: "Afterglow" cd, Movie tickets, Olive Garden gift card, VISA gift card, and a nice skirt/shirt/earrings for church. I felt very spoiled!:)

--I received some great cards this year, this one talks about Stanley reliving his birth every birthday (he's got a plunger on his head, and is pulling pretty hard, it's hysterical)
--Cute laughing cats, HA, Ha, Ha card (being older, more respected, more mature, ha, ha, ha:)

My friend Katie made a delicious strawberry, chocolate, cool whip, vanilla pudding cake... Man, it was so pretty, and so YUMMY!:)
(Be impressed, 30 candles, all blown out in one breath:)

So, although the day was like any other day, the evening was filled with family, friends, good food, and lots of fun:)
Thanks Honey, family, and friends for making my 30th birthday so wonderful:)
